I am totally at a loss here, the best I can think of is trimming the tar until all four blobs are 3x2 at a time you are next to the mother, (dropping the green doors) then killing the mother. But for the life of me I don't think that can be done fast enough. Any hints?

You're right, there isn't enough time to trim them and dash for the mother.

Ok, that was evil. Thanks for the masterly crafted non-specific hint.

I'm gonna seem like such a n00b for posting this (No offence to BolucPap or Plundermot) but I can't crack this either.

The way I did it, timing was critical. If that's not enough information:

I think I need some more help. I have tried many times, but can't possibly get the
tar baby from one blob to the other. Can someone give me some more hints?

Man! I thought I had played enough DROD to be good enough to be mediocre, but it seems that is not the case at all! This level is giving me fits! I can bareky understand how to beat this level! I mean, I can get one tar baby from the southeast to the north east lets say, but then what? the southeast tar is already 4x2 and I am back where I started! Any help? the hints already given have not been able to help me that much... any more specific hints?

H&S Syndrome.

I couldn't edit/delete, there was an error and the "Caravel Forum" top banner had two, rather than the one banner.

I can set up two of these just fine (one for each column), but my issue comes along when I try to get the one on the opposite side vertically.

Namely, the tar babies just slip out of the chamber on the other row, and the tarstuff will be able to grow again--something that I NEED to prevent. Setting up one seems to ensure that you reset up the one of the opposing row; what am I missing?

You pretty much have to make use of move order, so this is a bit tricky to figure out.
